[10:24] <airurando> the ubuntu-ie website is filled with spam postings
[10:25] <airurando> can it be taken down as in it's current state it reflects badly on us
[10:27] <czajkowski> airurando: there is spam on the site?
[10:27] <czajkowski> wow
[10:27] <czajkowski> how the hell has this happened ?
[10:27] <airurando> yeah just look at the front page
[10:27] <airurando> I'm blocking the users now
[10:28] <czajkowski> ok let me go to talk to IS
[10:28] <airurando> is there anyway we can approve users before they get access?
[10:29] <czajkowski> nobody bar a few folksshould have access to the website....
[10:29] <czajkowski> wiki yes as admins
[10:29] <czajkowski> but not the website
[10:30] <ebel> bah
[10:30] <airurando> very annoying
[10:31] <czajkowski> filed a RT asking for a rediect from website to http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-ie
[10:32] <czajkowski> airurando: ebel you cna log into rt.ubuntu.com and see #19274
[10:32] <airurando> I'm deleting the posts now
[10:35] <airurando> there were only 4 spam posts on the main page. all gone now
[10:35] <airurando> I spent hours going through the comments a few months ago.
[10:35] <airurando> real annoying
[10:37] <czajkowski> :(
[10:37] <czajkowski> no idea why it's happening eithe
[10:37] <ebel> there was a catpcha system up...
[10:37] <czajkowski> thought that was on the wiki ?
[10:38] <airurando> would the security have been better  if we had moved to blacknight
[10:38] <czajkowski> YES!
[10:39] <airurando> ebel,czajkowski.  catpcha system is up and running on the website
[10:39] <czajkowski> hmm
[10:39] <czajkowski> 3rd time now in as many weeks
[10:41] <airurando> I think I remember slashtommy suggesting shelving the website in preference to the loco team portal and wiki
[10:42] <czajkowski> nods
[10:42] <czajkowski> for the time being
[10:42] <czajkowski> I've asked for a redirect
[10:42] <airurando> If no one is available to get things up and running on blacknight I'm for that
[10:42] <czajkowski> if a website happens we can get it un directed
[10:42] <airurando> aye
[10:43] <airurando> the website 'as is' is WAY more trouble that it is worth.
[10:43] <czajkowski> nods
[10:46]  * slashtommy remembers mentioning there are too many websites
[10:46] <slashtommy> pick one, and we can all use that one :)
[10:47] <czajkowski> rihght IS will do redirect to LTP
[11:05] <airurando> the redirect is in place
[11:05] <czajkowski> yup
[11:06] <czajkowski> doing the whole site not just main page as well
[11:08] <airurando> can we add mailing list details , wiki details etc  to the LTP landing page
[11:08] <czajkowski> yup
[11:08] <airurando> who can do it?
[11:09] <czajkowski> ebel: he's admin on the page
[11:09] <czajkowski> as is mean-machine
[11:09] <airurando> ebel: can you jazz up the LTP landing page with other team details?
[11:10] <czajkowski> or maybe add airurando instead of mean-machine as he doesnt seem that active here any more
[11:13] <airurando> yeah I'll do it, as best I can, if I get access.
[11:20] <ebel> ok i'll have a look
[11:21] <ebel> ok, given airurando and czajkowski team admin magic
[11:22] <ebel> heheh "State/Province/Region"
[11:23] <slashtommy> Ireland/Leinster/EU
[11:23] <slashtommy> strange order to have things
[11:23] <ebel> It has a box for the mailing list, which was correct, but that doesn't show up on front page
[11:23] <ebel> slashtommy:
[11:24] <ebel> slashtommy: #ubuntu-ie does all provinces, not lenister
[11:26] <slashtommy> i thought we didn't care about munster these days ;)
[11:27] <ebel> Although there are NUTS Regions in Ireland, and an Irish Regions Office ( http://www.iro.ie/index.shtml ), and Regions within the EU ( http://www.cor.europa.eu/ )
[11:27] <ebel> They aren't used by average people. Regions would be used in the UK, so doesn't really apply to use at all
[11:28] <slashtommy> Regions and countries would be used within the UK, and regions within countries within the UK
[11:29] <ebel> oh
[11:29] <ebel> mailing list does come up
[11:29] <ebel> that's the envelope icon
[11:30] <ebel> and forum etc
[11:32] <airurando> ebel is clever
[12:03] <airurando> ebel our LTP team admin magic has disappeared!
[12:03] <ebel> yes thought that happened before...
[12:03] <ebel> tis odd
[12:04] <airurando> maybe two is the max?
[12:04] <ebel> i presume a regular task that syncs with launchpad?
[12:06]  * ebel goes to the horses mouth, i.e. loco team portal developers
[12:08] <czajkowski> states for 2 of them and one in india
[12:12] <ebel> actually probably isn't that, since ( https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-ie ) only lists me (rorymcc) as an admin, and mean-machine is still staying admin on LTP
[12:12] <ebel> oddness indeed
[12:13] <czajkowski> not sure mean-machine should be on there given he doesnt seem active in the loco tbh
[12:14] <czajkowski> and while I'm ok with you and airurando and slashtommy making changes as you're active, people being non active and making changes is a bit of a no no
[12:17] <ebel> yeah good point.
[12:17] <ebel> the admin magic is still there....
[12:20] <ebel> I have removed mean machine from the admin list
[12:20] <ebel> They weren't even down as a team member, had to scroll all the waaaaaay down the full list of members :P
[12:21] <ebel> s/members/launchpad usernames/
[12:21] <ebel> maybe it'll stick this time....
[12:31] <airurando> nope it has reverted
[12:43] <ebel> lame
[12:44] <ebel> looks like someoen else has noticed it https://bugs.launchpad.net/loco-team-portal/+bug/792475
[12:46] <ebel> It appears to affect other things, not just admins
[12:46] <ebel> i added "All 4 Provinces" to the "State/Province/Region" for the lark
[12:46] <ebel> and then it went away
[12:49]  * ebel comments on bug and waits
[14:21] <ebel> upon the advise of some LTP devs, I've made airurando and czajkowski admins on the launchpad team. that should filter through to the LTP shortly
[14:22] <czajkowski>  ebel you've been busy
[16:23] <ebel> ok I've given airurando and czajkowski admin on LTP
[16:23] <ebel> mean-machine is still down as admin
[17:27] <czajkowski> Fantastic new!  I'm joining Canonical and shall be working with the amazing folks on the Launchpad team! Cannot wait! very happy!!
[17:36] <ebel> what?! Really!!
[17:36] <ebel> Congratulations!
[17:36] <ebel> fair fucks to you
[17:36] <czajkowski> start monday
[17:37] <moylan> wow that is good news!  they could really use your skills.
[17:37] <ebel> wow, quick!
[17:37] <ebel> you deserve it!
[17:37] <moylan> ^this
[17:38] <czajkowski> thank you
